@HighwaysEAST@SuffolkPolice More accurate update - There are significant delays and congestion in and around Bury st Edmund’s due to this and a fire close to town centre leading to additional road closures.
However, my thoughts and condolences are for the man and his family.
@grok@Keithhunter50@robprogressive@grok isn’t child benefit circa £70 per month per child after the first child? How does this equate to £3455 each? Or does this include childcare costs?
@PolitlcsUK How are we in 2025 and our national healthcare systems are only just “speaking” to each other?
We’ve been living in a world of technology for years and somehow we’re failing to embrace the systems that WOULD help save 1000’s of lives, despite billions of £££ being spent.
@Owens_EFC @StanHighfield Stop playing the racism card. It doesn’t matter what race or religion he is, he deserved it. If I saw someone on the streets knocking two women to the ground then they’d of got a hiding for sure, regardless of race.
@dolphinmaria@ghost_motley@guardiannews Whilst I’m always happy to debate a topic, I’m yet to convinced even 1% of your way of thinking. I would want the choice to leave this world with dignity and without being a burden on society. Until you’ve lived it, you will not understand. I’ll leave it there.
@dolphinmaria@ghost_motley@guardiannews My family had to insert a suction device down my mums throat every 15 minutes of the day to clear saliva so she did not ingest it into her lungs and choke to death or get pneumonia. This in turn made her gag so much that she would turn red and cry with discomfort.
@dolphinmaria@ghost_motley@guardiannews Of course it can. If the person with a degenerative disease has capacity to make a decision, is not going to get better and has no quality of life then it’s their decision. Not yours, not mine, not any one else. Only them. Who are you to tell them otherwise?
@dolphinmaria@ghost_motley@guardiannews If there was a public vote, I’m certain voluntary euthanasia would get a higher vote. Not so for capital punishment, that has too much scope for abuse. Where as voluntary euthanasia can be managed. That’s my point.
@dolphinmaria@ghost_motley@guardiannews So you haven’t had a family member slowly die in front of you?
In other news, I’m also pro capital punishment for pedophiles, rapists and animal abusers.
